April went by in a flash. I spent countless hours the past couple of months putting together the new and improved website: SandySandyFineArt.com. It's been a long time coming, at least a year and a half, I'm a little embarrassed to admit. There always seemed to be something more important, like painting or social networking, to do. It's finally published and I couldn't be happier with the outcome or more relieved that the bulk of the work is done. My facebook buddies have been checking out the site on different devices and giving me extremely helpful feedback so I continue to find glitches and tweak pages. If you too would visit the site and give me your feedback, I'd REALLY & TRULY APPRECIATE IT! PLEASE LMK what platform, browser and device you viewed it on, especially if you are on a pc or mobile device. Thanks in advance for your time and thoughts!
